Abstract: The invention deals with a composition comprising an organically modified silicate, and an organic compound having at least one non-primary amine group and at least three hydroxyl groups, wherein at least two of said hydroxyl groups have an amino group in beta position of the hydroxyl group, and wherein said at least two hydroxyl groups having an amino group in beta position of the hydroxyl group are separated by at least 6 carbon atoms, and wherein at least a part of the hydroxyl groups of the organic compound are secondary hydroxyl groups.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a urea and urethane group containing product comprising one or more species of formula (I) R1—O—(C?O)—NH—R2—NH—(C?O)—NH—R3—NH—[—(C?O)—NH—R4—NH—(C?O)—NH—R3—NH—]n—(C?O)—NH—R2—NH—(C?O)—O—R1 (I), wherein R1 independently represents a non-aromatic hydrocarbyl group having 14 to 30 carbon atoms; R2 independently represents alkyl-substituted aromatic hydrocarbyl groups having 7 to 12 carbon atoms; R3 independently represents hydrocarbyl groups having 2 to 36 carbon atoms, which can be interrupted by 1 to 17 ether oxygen atoms in case of aliphatic hydrocarbyl groups; R4 independently represents hydrocarbyl groups having 2 to 36 carbon atoms; n is an integer from 0 to 200; and wherein on average from 40 mol-% to 100 mol-% of all R3 and R4 groups contained in the one or more species of formula (I) are acyclic aliphatic hydrocarbyl groups which, in case of R3, can be interrupted by 1 to 17 ether oxygen atoms.
